Hi Amruth,

MDM as we know stands for Master Data Management.

It is a known truth that MDM is the hot topic and most valuable platform in the market.

Here we basically deal with the Master Data i.e. master data is taken from various systems that a Business have and then steps are taken to make the Master data non-redundant inorder to maintain data consistency and data quality.

There are three basic scenarios that we follow in MDM:

Data Consolidation

Data Harmonization

Central Master Data Management

Consolidation :

1. Cleansing and de-duplication

2. Data normalization including categorization and taxonomy management

3. New interactive consolidation capabilities

Data Harmonization :

1. Automated synchronization of globally relevant master data information

2. New Interactive distribution capabilities

Central Master Data Management :

1. Central creation and maintenance of data

2. Ongoing master data quality

Hi Amruth,

These are some more links:

/thread/683426 [original link is broken]

For learning MDM:

Also I would like to tell you that infact there are a lot of onsite opportunities and if you have some funcitonal knowledge then life will become very easy for you. Every techy guy should think for moving into the techno-funcational layer so that all of us understand techinal as well as business.

SAP is merketing for MDM very well and are very confident for this tool. Also as companies will move into ESOA, MDM will become the base for evry implementation.

Hence once you become proficient in MDM, you can easily get an opprotunity onsite for MDM.

Hope it helps.
